Where We Begin
FOR BETRAYED PARTNERS
When everything you trusted feels uncertain.
You may be replaying conversations, searching for answers, or questioning your own judgment. Even getting through an ordinary day can feel overwhelming.
We'll focus on managing the immediate distress, understanding your reactions, and helping you feel steadier before making big decisions.
FOR SEX ADDICTION
When your relationship is at risk and you need to make a change.
Maybe you've tried to stop certain behaviors, or you're afraid of losing your relationship or family. You want to take responsibility, but don't know how to break the cycle.
We'll work on understanding what's driving the behaviors, managing urges, and taking practical steps toward lasting change.
How We’ll Work Together
Understanding what's happening matters. So does knowing what to do about it.
Talking about betrayal, sexuality, shame, or behaviors you've kept hidden isn't always easy. My approach is warm, grounded, and thoughtfully direct. I want you to feel comfortable being honest with me, and you can expect that same honesty in return.
My understanding of betrayal trauma is both professional and personal. Having experienced betrayal myself, I know what it's like to question yourself and carry shame for something you didn't cause. That experience shapes my compassion, while my specialized training informs how I help clients navigate betrayal and compulsive sexual behaviors.
Whether you're struggling with shame over what's happened to you or choices you've made, you deserve a place to be honest without judgment. We'll work to understand what's happening, take responsibility where it belongs, and develop practical tools you can use outside our sessions.
I'll listen, ask thoughtful questions, and challenge you when it's helpful. Because insight matters, but so does knowing what to do next.
What I want you to know
Compassion and accountability can exist together.
I don't believe people should be defined by what they've experienced or choices they regret.
You deserve a place to be honest without shame or judgment.
If you've been betrayed, you're not responsible for someone else's choices. If your behavior has hurt someone, understanding why doesn't mean ignoring the impact.
Both deserve compassion, honesty, and a path forward.

My Approach
Evidence-based therapy. Practical strategies.
Real-life change.
Therapy should help you make changes outside the therapy room. We'll use evidence-based approaches to understand what's driving your reactions or behaviors, manage difficult emotions, and develop skills you can put into practice.
I'm trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and am a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist Candidate (CSAT-C). I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Gottman-informed approaches, and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), tailoring our work to your needs and goals.
I offer virtual, private-pay therapy throughout Texas, providing a confidential space to address concerns that can be difficult to discuss, even with those closest to you.
YOU DESERVE TO FEEL AT HOME WITHIN yourself AGAIN.
your journey back to self-trust begins today.
